Things like that often happen to me too!"I have an appointment with my NHS Respiratory physio team on Friday and will plead my case for an F30 or F40. They said to me last week they did not have f40 in as yet however they are soon to see resmed rep any day now."

British Lung Foundation's Sleep Apnoea Survey
Please will all UK Sleep Apnoea Sufferers fill in the British Lung Foundations' Online Survey? It is the first survey done of this kind and involves answering questions on your symptoms, diagnosis and treatment, with a view to improving services for OSA across the UK. Oh, and you might even win a £25 Marks & Spencer's Voucher as a thank you!
Here's the direct link to the survey www.blf.org.uk/osasurvey and thank you for your time.

I've filled in the survey and found it interesting reflecting on how I felt before treatment + just how long it actually took me to finally get on therapy. Of course I ticked the box to say I'd like to win the M & S Voucher too

I've done the survey too and also found it interesting in the same way as you Kath . Some questions wee a little awkward to answer but only because I have not yet been using Cpap for 12 months.

Thanks Steven - no wonder BLF said they'll find it interesting reading, as I found it interesting doing it, and will look forward to receiving results of the survey, as I ticked that box too!

I've filled in the survey Kath. I also found some questions tricky to answer... mainly because although I had heard of OSA several years ago, I was then only concerned about my excessve snoring. I was not fully aware of ALL symptoms of OSA (some of which I also had), until a couple of years ago, when I was diagnosed.

Filled it in Kath! found it quite simple but the questions on diagnosis are a bit confusing as I (and other SA people I know) were seeing their GP's with other things well before it was even suspected. and of course I ticked the box to say I would go in the box for the M&S vouchers! (which I will probably donate to the tombola for HSASG if lucky!)

all done

just try starting it again if it went through you will get a message 'already completed'
